(Optional) Analyze water quality indicators of a given body of water or aquatic habitat.

Analysis should include, but not be limited to, testing water for

chemical sampling (e.g., pH, nitrates, nitrites, ammonia, dissolved oxygen)
physical sampling (e.g., temperature, clarity, turbidity, biological indicators).
